Nigerian Forward Imoh Ezekiel Rules Out Move to Royal Antwerp; Russian and Croatian Clubs Show Interest
Imoh Ezekiel, the Nigerian forward and Rio 2016 Olympics star, will not be joining Belgian Pro League club Royal Antwerp, according to his representative, Liammed Gafaar. The news comes amidst reports suggesting that Royal Antwerp had identified Ezekiel as a potential target, as stated in a report on Transfermerkez.com. However, Gafaar has clarified that there are several offers on the table for Ezekiel, including interest from Standard Liege in Belgium, as well as clubs in Russia and Croatia.
Gafaar revealed that while there is significant interest in Ezekiel’s services, his personal terms are currently causing a delay in securing an immediate move. It appears that Ezekiel is carefully considering his options and weighing the pros and cons of each potential destination. As a result, he has decided against signing for Royal Antwerp at this time.
Gafaar remains optimistic that Ezekiel will find a suitable club before the transfer window closes. Negotiations are ongoing, and it is expected that an agreement will be reached in due course. Ezekiel’s representative did not disclose the names of the Russian and Croatian clubs that have expressed an interest in the talented forward.
Imoh Ezekiel, 28, had terminated his contract with Turkish club Konyaspor six months after joining last summer due to a breach of agreement. Since then, he has been considering his next move and has attracted attention from various clubs across Europe. With his impressive performances at the Rio 2016 Olympics, where he represented Nigeria, Ezekiel has proven himself to be a promising talent.
As the transfer window draws to a close, football fans eagerly await news of Ezekiel’s next destination. Will he opt for Belgium, Russia, or Croatia? Only time will tell as negotiations continue behind the scenes. One thing is for certain, though – Ezekiel’s future in football remains bright, and his skills are highly sought after by clubs around the world.
